AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)01/07 Report--
Recently, China Automotive Research C-NCAP announced the new car crash test results, participating in the collision is the Skyworth EV6 520 smart version produced by Nanjing Jinlong bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd. The test results showed that Skyworth EV6 scored 38.45,61.46 and 30.26 in occupant protection evaluation, pedestrian protection evaluation and active safety evaluation respectively. According to the score rate of each part multiplied by their respective weight coefficients, the final comprehensive score rate of Skyworth EV6 is 39.9%, with only an one-star rating. The score of Chuangzhong Auto Research C-NCAP historical evaluation model is a new low, and its safety is comparable to that of the elderly scooter.
Skyworth EV6 520 Smart Edition, which participated in the C-NCAP crash test of China Automobile Research Institute, is priced at 205800 yuan under official guidance. In terms of specific scores, the column impact test score was the worst, with a full score of 16, Skyworth EV6 got zero; Skyworth EV6 got a full score of 24 in the positive 100% overlapping rigid barrier collision test, and Skyworth EV6 scored only 13.26, of which the front main and passenger seat dummies scored zero directly on the right thigh, which posed a fatal risk to the occupants; not only that, the rear row occupants of Skyworth EV6 were also very bad, with 0 points for all three monitoring points of the right child dummies. In other words, if a collision occurs in reality, the children in the back row may have no signs of life, and there is a great risk of death. In addition, the test car configuration sheet indicates that there is a reminder that the seat belt is not fastened, but the actual test car does not have it at all, and 2 points will be deducted.
In addition to the low occupant protection score, the active safety performance is also very poor. It is understood that the Skyworth EV6 that participated in the collision test was equipped with a car / pedestrian / car two-wheeler AEB to brake actively, but in the actual test, the Skyworth EV6 not only rear-ended, but also hit the dummy. As a result, Skyworth EV6 scored only 3.995 out of 38 on ADAS.
Who is Skyworth Automobile? Huang Hongsheng, the "king of color TV", began to lay out and build cars more than 10 years ago. Data show that Kaiwo New Energy Automobile Group Co., Ltd. was established on December 21, 2010, founded by Skyworth Group Chairman Huang Hongsheng, is an enterprise specializing in manufacturing new energy buses. Since then, Kaiwo New Energy acquired and reorganized Nanjing Jinlong bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and gradually transformed from new energy vehicles to new energy passenger cars, realizing the simultaneous development of merchants and passengers, and finally gave birth to Timi Automobile.
Jiangsu Timi Automobile Co., Ltd. was established on November 1, 2019, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kaiwo New Energy. Tianmei Automobile brand logo adopts W shape and its English name is "Skywell". On October 8, 2020, Timi's first model, Timi ET5, was officially launched with a price range of 15.28-198800 yuan, which is equipped with the Skylink intelligent network connection system jointly developed by Timi and Skyworth. It should be noted that it took less than a year from the launch of the brand to the launch of the first mass production model. However, the sales performance of Timi ET5 is not very optimistic, selling only 595 vehicles in half a year.
Due to the lack of popularity, coupled with Baidu, Xiaomi, Ali and other companies have entered the bureau to build cars, Timi Automobile finally announced that it was renamed Skyworth Automobile. On April 27th, 2021, Skyworth Group held a communication meeting with the theme of "the Future of Skyworth Intelligent cars", and officially announced that Timi changed its name to Skyworth, and at the same time changed and upgraded Timi ET5, the new car will be renamed Skyworth ET5, including the tail mark of the new car will also be updated from Timi's English name "Skywell" to Skyworth Group's English name "Skyworth". In July 2021, Skyworth ET5 changed its name to Skyworth EV6 and went public with a price of 15.28-249800 yuan. Compared with Skyworth ET5, the appearance of the new car has not changed much, but it has made a lot of updates and optimizations in vehicle configuration, power battery and so on.
Compared with NIO, Xiaopeng, ideal and other new car-building brands, Skyworth, which laid out new energy buses as early as 10 years ago, has rich experience in automobile manufacturing, technical reserves and brand influence. However, Skyworth still "got up early in the morning and caught the evening collection." According to the official website, Skyworth cars currently on sale include EV6 and HTi models. According to the official announcement, Skyworth sold a total of 21916 vehicles in 2022, of which 3116 were delivered in December.
It is worth mentioning that just yesterday, Skyworth just announced an increase in the price of Skyworth EV6, and the configuration / price adjustment of the whole department of models, including 520standard version, 520smart version, 520Pro version, 620standard version, 620smart version, 620Pro version are all increased by 8000 yuan, 520joy version, 620joy version, 620travel version is not on sale, 410travel version, 520travel version price is not adjusted.
Generally speaking, the collision performance of new energy vehicles is better than that of traditional fuel vehicles. The overall layout of new energy vehicles is often relatively simple, and the updated platform can better ensure that the overall structure of new energy vehicles is superior, while the collision test performance of fuel vehicles is generally lower than that of new energy vehicles due to considering the structure of engine and gearbox.
As we all know, the collision performance of the C-NCAP has been questioned by outsiders. No matter the models that participated in the collision in 2022 or before, the models that basically participated in the collision test received a five-star rating, mainly because of their relatively low collision standards and lack of rigor to the vehicle structure test. Therefore, the collision test of the C-NCAP of China Automobile Research Institute is not very interesting, and it is even jokingly called "five-Star Wholesale Department" by netizens. However, Skyworth EV6 as a new energy vehicle, as a price of 15-250000 yuan level of electric vehicles, its safety performance is comparable to the elderly scooter, but also the Chuangzhong Auto Research C-NCAP test rating is a new low, if in the more stringent Insurance Research C-IASI, the outcome may be even worse.
